Bosch Targets India and China Bosch sees India and China as ideal markets for its new hydrogen engine powertrain technology in commercial vehicles.
Andreas Dempf, Head of Sales and Customers for the Mobility Solutions sector at Bosch, highlights the potential in India due to the ample availability of green hydrogen. Hydrogen engine technology allows for cost reduction as it reuses existing components, making commercial vehicles more accessible.
Bosch is promoting hydrogen technology not only in vehicles but also in hydrogen production and tank systems. However, successful deployment in India by 2030 requires a robust hydrogen production network and an efficient distribution system, including filling stations across the country. Government support will be crucial for this transition.
Bosch is showcasing its hydrogen engines, electric vehicles, driver assistance systems, and infrastructure solutions at IAA Transportation 2024. Dempf emphasizes Bosch’s investment in two types of hydrogen engine technologies: fuel injection systems and direct injection systems, providing various options for users.
